When will I have a long tassel?

Four years have passed...

"Ah sneeze!"

In the urban area of ​​Heling, Jinnan Province, in a facade with the sign "Fat Man Machine Tool", Ning Mo, who was covered in fat, was half lying on a couch, swinging a big cattail leaf leisurely. Suddenly, without warning, he hit A sneeze. He sat up, rubbed his eyes with the back of his hand, and muttered, "Who's talking about me again."

"Dad, of course I was the one complaining about you!"

A chubby boy of four or five years old rolled over from behind the facade until he was in front of Ning Mo. He giggled and climbed on top of him.

Ning Mo's face showed the happy smile of an old father. She reached out and picked up her son, let him sit on her belly, and asked with a smile: "Son, what are you talking about about dad?"

"It's time to buy ice cream again. I want to eat two-color ice cream today." Xiao Pangdun said.

Ning Mo said: "But your mother said she can't let you eat ice cream anymore. If you continue to eat ice cream, you will be fatter than me."

"Didn't you say that fat people are blessed with fatness?"

"When did I say that?"

"Last time my mother called you fat, that's what you said."

"That's why I lied to your mother. Son, you can't look like your father in the future. You have to look like your Uncle Tang Shuai."

"What does Uncle Tang Shuai look like?"

"He looks just like..., eh, looks just like him!"

As soon as Ning Mo finished speaking, his eyes widened involuntarily. I saw two young men walking in from outside the store. The first one was wearing a suit and leather shoes, and his face was like a crown jewel. Isn't it the handsome Tang Zifeng he just mentioned!

Ning Mo jumped up from the couch as if there were springs on his butt, holding his fat son in his hands, and rushed to Tang Zifeng in one stride, laughing and saying: "Old Tang, why are you here? This is really When Cao Cao arrives, I wonder who was talking about me just now!"

"Why, did you miss me just now?" Tang Zifeng reached out and took the little fat man from Ning Mo's arms, held it in his hand, and asked with a smile.

Ning Mo pointed at his son and said, "Just now I told my son to eat less ice cream and stop him from getting fat like me. I said he has to look like his Uncle Tang Shuai."

"Fat man, aren't you swearing?" Tang Zifeng said with a smile.

"Why are you just swearing?" Ning Mo was a little confused.

Tang Zifeng said: "Your son doesn't look like you, but he wants to look like me. Are you sure you are not joking?"

Only then did Ning Mo realize that he had said the wrong thing and that he had indeed scolded himself. He angrily scolded: "Ahem! Bah! What kind of ideas are you thinking? You are still the general manager!"

After a fight, Ning Mo let Tang Zifeng and his secretary Xiong Kai, who was following Tang Zifeng, into the hall. This hall is usually used as a maintenance workshop, and there is no sofa. Ningmo found a few chairs and asked everyone to sit down. Then he pushed his son and ordered: "Go and call your mother over, and tell Tang It always comes.”

Little Fatty ran to the backyard in a hurry, bringing with him a small gust of wind. Tang Zifeng looked at Little Fatty's back, smiled and asked Ning Mo, "Your son's name is Yiming, right? Is he four years old this year?"

Ning Mo said: "I was born at the end of 1998, and he is now four and a half years old. Didn't you help me pick up his name? You said my name is 'Mo'. If I stay silent for a long time, I will become famous, so I gave it to him." I gave him the name 'Yi Ming'. By the way, my wife has another child in her belly now. I want to be called 'Jingming' when she is born?"

Xiong Kai, who was sitting next to him, burst into laughter. In the past few years, he had been following Tang Zifeng and had met Ning Mo several times. He knew that his leader, a young boy, had a habit of having brain problems. The birth of the child was named "Amazing", which is magical enough.

"The fat man is so brainless, Brother Tang, don't argue with him!"

A voice came, and Tang Zifeng looked up. It was Ning Mo's wife Zhang Beibei. She was holding the little fat Dun Ning Yiming in her hand. Her belly was bulging, and it was obvious that there was a "Ning Jingren" inside.

"Sister-in-law, why did I alert you?" Tang Zifeng quickly stood up and saluted.

Zhang Beibei is younger than Ning Mo and Tang Zifeng. When she first became attached to Ning Mo, she called them "Brother Ning" and "Brother Tang" respectively. After she married Ning Mo, Tang Zifeng still called her by her first name for a while, but then slowly changed to "sister-in-law". Zhang Beibei's name for Tang Zifeng has never changed. This is also to bring the relationship closer between the two parties.

Zhang Beibei found a chair and sat down. Tang Zifeng looked at her and asked, "How many months have my sister-in-law been? Have you had a B-ultrasound? Is it a boy or a girl?"

Zhang Beibei said: "It has been more than six months, and I have already had someone take care of me. She is a girl. In fact, I said that there is already a boy at home. It doesn't matter if the next one is a boy or a girl. There is no need to take a picture. The fat man insisted on taking a picture, so he took a picture." It was a girl who came out. The fat man's Coke was broken and he said that he was looking forward to having a daughter. He also said that her name would be 'Amazing' when she was born. Tell me, how can a father be like this?"

"My son's name is Yi Ming, and my daughter's name is Wei Jing. Together, they are Yi Ming. Isn't it great?" Ning Mo quibbled.

"You can call it Jinghong, which means the flying geese. It is used to describe the girl's light figure." Tang Zifeng suggested.

Zhang Beibei's eyes lit up: "This is a good name. I have learned this word in the past. Fatty, look at it, Brother Tang is still knowledgeable. Who is like you, uneducated and unskilled, and not humble."

"As long as Old Tang is here to read, why should I read so many books? From now on, my son will follow Old Tang and be his secretary, and my daughter will be a student of Professor Xiao."

Ning Mo said carelessly, completely ignoring the look of displeasure on the face of Xiong Kai, Tang Zifeng's secretary:

Damn it, let’s go!

Hearing Ning Mo talk about Xiao Wenjun, Zhang Beibei asked with a smile: "Brother Tang, is Wenjun going to give birth soon? Have you ever taken a photo to see if it's a boy or a girl?"

Tang Zifeng waved his hand: "Beijing doesn't allow photos, so I didn't even bother. Now even my parents say that it can be a boy or a girl, and it doesn't matter. However, the one in my family is younger, and the one in your family is the older sister."

After chatting about home affairs, Ning Mo asked: "Old Tang, why do you come to Jingnan when you have time? Didn't you say you were having a meeting in the capital a few days ago?"

Tang Zifeng said: "That's right, I was in the capital for a meeting a few days ago. After the meeting, nothing happened. Zhang Jianyang was watching over at the company, and he was in better control than me. I thought there was nothing wrong, so I ran away. Came to see you.”

"Honey, do you believe it?" Ning Mo asked Zhang Beibei.

"Of course I believe it. Who is Brother Tang? Besides Brother Tang, who else can think about you all day long?" Zhang Beibei said.

Ning Mo said disdainfully: "Old Tang won't miss me. The friendship between us is as gentle as water. When we have nothing to do, just talking on the phone is enough. Old Tang now has tens of thousands of people under his command. The big boss, if you have nothing to do, can you come to Jingnan to chat with me?"

Tang Zifeng nodded and said, "The fat man is right. My main purpose of coming to Jingnan is to see you. In addition, last time you said that many machine tool companies in Heling are selling at low prices. Later I heard that Han Weichang also Speaking of which, I wanted to come over and take a look. Domestic manufacturers have waged a price war too fiercely in the past two years. If we continue like this, we will defeat ourselves. I have to come and understand the situation."

Hearing them talking about business, Zhang Beibei quickly stood up and said: "Brother Tang, you talk to Fatty, or you and Secretary Xiong can have dinner in my store today at noon, and I will prepare it. Today is Sunday, our store None of the workers here have come to work, so let’s just eat whatever we want, what do you think?”

Tang Zifeng said: "If it's not too much trouble, then Xiaoxiong and I will eat in your store. It's been a long time since we tasted my sister-in-law's cooking, and we are in for a treat today."

Zhang Beibei smiled and said: "What? I don't have any skills, but Wen Jun's food is delicious. You guys talk slowly."

Watching Zhang Beibei leave, Tang Zifeng asked: "Fatty, you and Lai Taotao split up. Now this Fatty Machine Tool is purely a mom-and-pop shop for you and Beibei. How is it? Are you busy enough?"

Ning Mo said: "It's okay. She's in charge of money and I'm in charge of technology. The store employs 6 workers and I don't need to do any normal things. You see, I lost my weight a few years ago. This year It’s grown back again.”

Tang Zifeng assessed Ning Mo's body fat and said with a smile: "It's really time for you to lose weight. In the blink of an eye, we are all over 30. Do you think you gained weight prematurely?"

"There is no way. If you don't worry, you won't be able to lose weight." Ning Mo said, "The business in the store is very stable now. If you don't have enough food, you won't starve to death. Beibei has told me many times, asking if the business scope can be expanded. , make more money. But the machine tool market in Heling is only so big, and there are many machine tool repair shops on the street. If I want to develop further, I have to compete with others for the market, which will definitely turn into a price war. , just like those machine tool factories."

Hearing that Ningmo brought the topic back to the price war, Tang Zifeng stopped paying attention to his store and said instead: "It is indeed time to resolve the price war in the machine tool industry. Jingnan The small machine tool companies here are selling at low prices, which does not affect the overall situation. There are several large companies in our machine tool industry that are also engaging in malicious dumping, which is serious.

"I was in Beijing this time and talked about this matter with Lao Zhou. He said that he would consider arranging a leadership meeting of Machine 20 recently to discuss this matter. We have to take some actions against those companies that break industry rules. .”

"Should!" Ning Mo felt the same. "The ones that have gone too far are the Linpu Machine Tool Factory in Hongdu and the Xialiang Machine Tool Factory in Beidian. The Xialiang Machine Tool Factory was acquired by a boss from Jingnan. Yes, that boss has always liked to engage in price wars, and he is well-known in our Jingnan area. Everyone shakes their head when talking about him."

Tang Zifeng said: "Those two factories, let Lao Zhou talk to them when we wait for the Machine Tool Summit. If we can't reach an agreement, we have no choice but to take action. Here in Jingnan, I want to make an appointment with some machine tool factories Let’s talk to the boss and we’d better establish a price alliance to protect the bottom line, otherwise everyone will be a loser and there won’t be a winner.”

Chapter 1 of Volume 3. This book should theoretically be written in four volumes, but I haven’t thought about the story of Volume 4 yet. If I’m too lazy to think about it then, it will end in three volumes.
